New charges against a local government official
The Regional Office of the CBA in Gdańsk in October 2017 on the basis of its own materials referred - to the Lower Silesian Terrain Division of the Department for Organized Crime and Corruption of the National Prosecutor's Office in Wrocław – a notification of the suspicion of committing a crime by the President of the City of Gdansk involving the certification of untruth or concealment of the truth in submitted asset declaration on 30th April 2013 in the First Tax Office in Gdańsk - not disclosing the amount of PLN 124,800 of income in 2012, which resulted in tax depletion - that is the act of art. 56 § 1 of the Penal and Fiscal Code.
The materials were included in the investigation, in which the president and his wife already had the status of suspects from art. 56 § 1 Penal Code for a declaration of income PIT - 37 in 2011 submitted to the First Tax Office in Gdańsk - by failing to disclose the source of funds accumulated on bank accounts in 2011 in the amount of PLN 326,000.00, thus both persons reduced the personal income tax for 2011.
As a result of the decisions made, the prosecutor in December 2017 issued a decision on supplementing the allegations addressed to married couple for another act under art. 56 par. 1 kks, which concerns the year of tax fraud for 2012.
Currently, the officers of the CBA's Regional Office in Gdańsk are still carrying out activities aimed at establishing the sources of origin of untaxed funds collected by the President of Gdańsk and his wife.
